Russia successfully launched a crew of astronauts toward the International Space Station on Monday — almost two months after their rocket dramatically broke apart mid-flight.
The three astronauts — NASA’s Anne McClain, Russia’s Oleg Kononenko, and Canadian Space Agency astronaut David Saint-Jacques — reached orbit about 10 minutes after taking off from Kazakhstan on the Soyuz MS-11 rocket.
They’ll spend about six hours in orbit before docking at the ISS around 12:30 p.
